“…Salmonella Paratyphi A dT+ since the end of the 1990s has become increasingly prominent. Many outbreaks associated with this variant in France (Desenclos et al, 1991) in Canada (Gaulin et al, 2002) in Australia and several European countries (Denny et al, 2007) have been recorded. High prevalence of isolation of the multi-drug resistant salmonella paratyphi A dT+clone has been recorded from poultry and poultry products in Germany and Netherlands (Miko et al, 2002).…”

This study was aimed to detect Salmonella spp. in imported frozen beef and buffalo meat cuts from India, Brazil, Australia and Newzeland. One hundred frozen meat samples were collected from supermarkets located at Alexandria province and from Alexandria port. Salmonella was biochemically identified in 18/100 (18%) samples. Serologically, S. paratyphi A and S. typhi were detected in 10/18 (55.56%) and 8/18 (44.44%) positive samples, respectively. Using conventional PCR, 18/18 (100%) were confirmed to be pathogenic by specific primer to rfbS gene of the pathogenic strains of Salmonella responsible for the most food poisoning while all of these pathogenic isolates 18/18 (100 %) were also confirmed by real time PCR amplifying the invA gene of Salmonella spp. All copyrights reserved to Nexus® academic publishers

“…Strains associated with tropical fish commonly demonstrate resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulfonamides and tetracyclines (Denny et al, 2007). Reports in Eurosurveillance show that in the Netherlands the proportion of Salmonella isolates in poultry accounted for by S. Java increased from less than 2 % prior to 1996 to 60 % in 2002.…”

The antimicrobial resistance data on zoonotic and indicator bacteria in 2010, submitted by 26 European Union Member States, were jointly analysed by the European Food Safety Authority and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. Data covered resistance in zoonotic Salmonella and Campylobacter from humans, food and animals, and in indicator Escherichia coli and enterococci from animals and food. Some data on meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in animals and food were also included. In isolates from humans, resistance was mainly interpreted using clinical breakpoints, whereas in animal and food isolates, microbiological resistance was defined using epidemiological cut-off values. No major changes in resistance in monitored bacteria were observed compared with previous years. Resistance was commonly found in isolates from humans, animals and food, although disparities in resistance were frequently observed between Member States. High resistance levels were recorded to ampicillin, tetracyclines and sulfonamides in Salmonella isolates from humans, whereas resistance to third-generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones remained low. In Salmonella and indicator E. coli isolates from fowl, pigs, cattle and meat thereof, resistance to tetracyclines, ampicillin and sulfonamides was also commonly detected, whereas resistance to third-generation cephalosporins was low. Moderate to high levels of ciprofloxacin (a fluoroquinolone) resistance were observed in Salmonella isolates from turkeys, fowl and broiler meat. In Campylobacter isolates from human cases, resistance to ampicillin, ciprofloxacin, nalidixic acid and tetracyclines was high, while resistance to erythromycin was recorded at low to moderate levels. High resistance to ciprofloxacin, nalidixic acid and tetracyclines was also observed in Campylobacter isolates from fowl, broiler meat, pigs and cattle, whereas much lower levels were observed for erythromycin and gentamicin. Among the indicator enterococci isolates from animals and food, resistance to tetracyclines and erythromycin was commonly detected. Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was detected in some animal species and food of animal origin. mission is to identify, assess and communicate current and emerging threats to human health posed by infectious diseases. In order to achieve this mission, ECDC works in partnership with national public health bodies across Europe to strengthen and develop EU-wide disease surveillance and early warning systems. By working with experts throughout Europe, ECDC pools Europe's knowledge in health so as to develop authoritative scientific opinions about the risks posed by current and emerging infectious diseases. About the report SummaryZoonoses are infections and diseases that are transmissible between animals and humans. Infection can be acquired directly from animals, or through the ingestion of contaminated foodstuffs or other indirect contact. The severity of these infections in humans can vary from mild and asymptomatic to serio...

“…With respect to emerging serotypes, 239 cases of Salmonella Java were reported in the third quarter of 2007, compared to 75 cases in the analogous period of 2006. This is believed to be related to an outbreak of 172 cases of S. Java occurring in Sweden, associated with a common exposure to imported spinach, although this has not been confirmed with microbiological evidence [3]. The majority of cases of Salmonella were reported in persons aged between 15 T a b l e 1 and 64 years (45%), which is also the largest age group.…”

In the past such reports had been generated by Enter-net, a Europe-based international surveillance network for the enteric infections. The quarterly reports are an important surveillance tool for the network participants and other public health professionals to use in order to identify emerging trends and changes taking place in a shorter interval than one year.
